absolutely think so. bds is spreading across campuses. many activist groups, feminists, antiwar movements, lgbt are joining the campaigns and the u.s. there are many campaigns on campuses. there is a major shift among a number of jewish americans. i have seen a steady shift of younger jewish american opinion in support of bds and palestinian rights. i think that is raising alarm bells in the zionist establishment among the israel lobby figures in the u.s. >> you have worked with jewish groups in the u.s.? >> absolutely. several jewish groups have supported bds and some have not, but are working on bds-related campaigns. there are many groups that have joined bds campaigns and are doing excellent work to pressure pension funds to divest from companies profiting from the occupation and get college campuses to divest their funds as well for these corporations. a >> do you sense that shift in the media, glenn greenwald, as you read broad coverage of the issue, in particular, the boycott, divestment, sanctions movement? what i think there is a paradox that in one sense, as public opinion turns

in that question. [laughter] the first is that the book is antiwar. it is not. it is pro-truth about war. i'm not saying that we should have been in afghanistan or that we shouldn't have been in eastern afghanistan. i'm simply saying that if we are going to send troops there, we need to make sure that they have everything that they need so they can fight this war. that is what i am saying. [applause] i did write it in such a way because i don't offer many transfers and the book. it might be that war is awful. but that is not what i think. i voted in a certain way. .. >> that means we don't put remote outposts at the bottom of three steep mountains, that's a general conclusion for generals and colonels to arrange. it's not an anti-war book, and the fact the book was embraced by as many soldiers as it has shows it can be read in a different way. in terms of my leaving abc news, which was a wonderful place to live, and i also live and work for ten years, it was entirely because i wanted to anchor my own show, and cnn gave me the opportunity. that's really it. i -- it was a tough decision. i re

the rules they agreed to in a settlement that grew out of antiwar activists. you should know the so-called guidelines prohibit organizations unless there's specific information connecting them to a past or present crime. in spite of the violation, the program will continue. want to find out what my guests think we should know for the week coming up. heather? >> the president's state of the union obviously the austerity lobby to make sure he continues on the path to national decline. as fix the debt, which is one of the corporate front groups for austerity does a big press conference, you should know that 22 of the companies spent more on lobbying than in paying taxes. >> it's a good thing to know. there's interesting reporting of how they have played this key role in moving the conversation to austerity. something that we have been talking about a lot. >> part of the peterson machine. >> it counts for the explanatory gap between what voters talk about and what they say they care about. >> they have been a valuable public service. it's right in front of us. a couple points. you are t

and in these wars. i am an anti-war person. i think it is a misallocation of our resources. i am sick and tired of my party always pushing one more after another. it seems like this is a business. that is why we are conducting them. my second point is, you talk about free markets. we do not have a free market anymore because the free markets or the markets are manipulated by the people that control the money, as well as the industries. that is what globalization is all about. here's one last point -- for example, electric cars, solar panels, that was something that was around 40-50 years ago, and former president carter even had solar panels on the white house. if our government would have been smart back then to continue that trend and take one oracle -- 1-2% of our economy every year to convert to green energy, we would be much further ahead. i'm so tired of the republican party to always be anti-green. we have an issue on this planet. i would like to see some things done in regard to that. green energy is important, and we should pursue it. thank you so much. guest: the federal government do

, they could, but they can't because that are a brand. so if you pick up a pepsi brand, you cannot be anti-war. >> well, i had not thought of essie and beyonce in the same category, but i am going to say she was fierce and gorgeous, but the comparison might stop there. two things that i'm reminded of with the roosevelts and the contemporary folks. the robesons were insooiders in the art community, but outsiders because of the internationalist and the left wing politics and in a sense got blacklisted in terms of history and paul literally got blacklisted in terms of the career. so they had to be a united front from the margins and from the outside starting in the mccarthy era, but the question of internationalism and black celebrities on the international stage. eslanda robeson left in 1930 and returned in 1939 and left as a negro and came back as internationalist, and world citizen and black diaspra and she knew the heads of states to people who were shaped by her classroom experience. >> i want to borrow that, barbara, she left as a negro and came back as an influential political woman. and n

wrong with her. people like barack obama, they liked he was anti-war. that is how i see it. in terms of the poll numbers. she is right, the noncandidate's views. ri condi rice was more popular than bush was. but once hillary clinton gets back in the field of politics, republicans will remember why they do not like her. and her numbers will go back. the poll does not show that much. >> matt, let's take a look at the president's job approval ratedings. we have those numbers, i understand. the americans are split 46-45 right now in his job approval rating. why can't president obama seem to get over the 50% hump with americans, you think? >> the committee is no good. it has not been good under his watch. >> it's still the economy. >> it's not going to get good soon. americans like him more than they like his policies. you know, he has more of a frie friendly element than a job approval rating. it's surprising that he won re-election so handily. given where the economy is. it's normal, and i don't really think it's going to get better. i think the gap between him and hillary is that anyth
